Create a Real Social Safety Net

We need to do all we can to eliminate poverty in this country. Listen as Aaron and Damien discuss the piece “The Rise of Poverty Inc.” by Anne Kim in The Atlantic, which explores how poverty and helping the poor has become big business in the United States, and “Places across the U.S. are testing no-strings cash as part of the social safety net” by Jennifer Ludden in NPR, which highlights basic income pilot programs and their impact on alleviating poverty in this country, and what we learn and take away from these pieces about how best to address the issue of poverty in our continued learning and work for social justice and collective liberation.
